Pucker Up, Buttercup (New Year's Eve Cookies)

Mr. E & I didn't meet on New Year's Eve, but I like to say that's when we fell in love.

His roommate had been dating one of my best friends for a while. So, we knew each other, but never given one another much thought. At a New Year's Eve party, while my girlfriend Laura was running around finding her cousin to introduce to Mr. E and some guy to introduce to me....we ended up talking. We never did meet that cousin or that guy we were supposed to have been set up with.

At midnight, Mr. E kissed me on the cheek. I was smitten. A little over 3 years {and one breakup} later, we were married. ♥

So, New Year's Eve has a special place in my heart....even though we won't be going out, we'll be sipping champagne at home (well, he'll be sipping a beer), watching the ball drop in Times Square on TV.

I'm running out of time to get these posted, so no tutorial, but you can see from these pictures how the cookies came together:

Love your cute cookies. It's so funny, tonight the hubby and I are celebrating the 10th anniversary of our first date. We have a cajun dinner and some wine on the menu, we don't care much for the crowds either for our special day. So happy (unofficial) anniversary to you and a very sweet new year. Best wishes :)

Those cookies are adorable! Love always happens when you least expect it...I was ready to write my BF off at first, but his sense of humour just wouldn't let me...over 2 years later and I'm so glad I didn't brush him off. Congratulations! and Happy New Year to you both!
